Lack of orders in Germany: Ifo Institute reports growing wave of lawsuits - financial expert analyzes the deterioration of the situation.

According to a report by www.berliner-zeitung.de, the order situation for many companies in Germany is worrying. The number of complaints about missing orders has increased in industry and the service sector. According to the Munich Ifo Institute, 36.9 percent of industrial companies reported missing orders, compared to 36.0 percent in October. Among service providers, the proportion of suing companies also rose from 29.3 to 32.1 percent within the last four months.

According to Klaus Wohlrabe, head of the Ifo surveys, the lack of orders has noticeably worsened in the last year. Energy-intensive industrial sectors such as the paper industry, metal production and processing, and the chemical industry are particularly hard hit. Among service providers, personnel agencies and the catering industry in particular are suffering from a decline in orders.

This development has worrying effects on the economy and the financial market. A persistent lack of orders can lead to a loss of sales and endanger jobs in the long term. Affected companies could be forced to cut staff or reduce production, which would in turn affect consumer demand. This could lead to a general economic slowdown and have a negative impact on the financial market.

It is therefore important that the government and business associations take measures to improve the order situation and support the affected companies. Opportunities could include increasing government investment, creating tax incentives for companies and increasing workforce flexibility to avoid layoffs. This is the only way to maintain long-term economic stability and a positive financial market.
